Well, the original version is being packed in with the remake, so at worst it won't be a total loss.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Can someone explain to me what's so good about nights? I missed it on the genesis (that's what it was on, right?) and I always hear everyone praising it. I've tried watching videos on youtube to see what it's like and it seems like you're just flying around in a linear path. I'm missing something, I'm sure.

Actually it was on the Game Gear. nIghts is a game you pretty much have to play to understand why it gets so much love (I myself wear a shirt with Yuji Naka's face on it, his eyes have been replaced with hearts). Internet videos fail to capture the raw emotion of the machine gun totting bonus levels, and the power-ups that let you fly around the world in true 3D while trance music produces explosions of colour that soak into the landscape (goggles required).

It's a fairly simple game, yeah, but it has really good replay value as your sexual desire to constantly improve upon your score and such goes on!

It's the beautified equivalent to Pac-Man. Enough said.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

I'm tellin' ya, Sega America's still bitter nobody bought Sega Classics Collection. Now they won't give anyone a piece of the new exciting remake pie.

"Give me ALL THE MONEY for quality collection"
"But what have you done to Golden Axe?"
"It is BETTER. ALL THE MONEY"
"Oooooaaauuuugh"
"Hey, HEY. Buy Virtua Quest too. DO IT"

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

I dunno whether I should even bother pre-ordering the special edition. I mean, it's just an art book.

Considering this is NiGHTS, I would've thought that, you know, an OST would just make more sense.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Oh hi, the game is out.
Things I noticed:
- First thing you need to do is enable Autosave or it will bug you about saving every time.
- Saturn mode and BRAND NEW MODE are selectable right from the start. New mode is the gfx upped mode.
- Saturn mode is not 100% like the saturn - textures still look like they are filtered. The dithered "checkerboard" transparency was changed to real transparency. Music uses streaming audio, no idea if it changes as you play the levels cause I could never get that thing working. Backgrounds seem a bit less detailed, maybe because the Saturn handled these much different.
- New mode doesnt look that good - sure its just a PS2 game but I've seen better quality textures and sharper graphics.
- Claire grew tits
- Elliot is still a fag
- Xmas Nights is unlocked once you complete the game with all characters, with at least C rating on all levels.
- Xmas Nights is incredibly stripped down. None of the presents are there, save for the gallery which is accessible from the main menu anyway. That means no Sonic, no link mode, no karaoke mode, no music test, etc.

Unless there are more unlockables, for getting all As or so, I think I maxed out the game in 1 or 2 hours. Good job, Sega...

Also, something hilarious: half of the data on the disc is taken up by 8 different credit roll fmvs.

Oh shit, it's OUT?!?! Damn, I have to hit Play-Asia right about now, be right back.

I'm deeply dissapointed to note that none of the presents are included for Christmas NiGHTS. I was hoping that they'd include everything that was in the original. I like my Saturn as much as the next guy, but this game was made to be played with a decent analogue stick, and that means... NOT the one that was included with the game.
